3/4 oz Apricot Brandy (1/2 oz Rothman & Winter)
1 tsp Banana Liqueur (1/4 oz Giffard Banane du Bresil)
1/2 oz Lime Juice
Shake with ice, strain into a coupe, and garnish with a flamed orange twist.
After the Tulip, I decided to leave my apricot liqueur out and move on to the Shipwreck Daiquiri that I had spotted in Tiki Drinks: Tropical Cocktails for the Modern Bar. Overall, the recipe reminded me of a Periodista with banana instead of orange liqueur. Since the banana element was so light relative to the apricot that the balance reminded me of a Maharaja's Revenge, I decided to adjust the proportions a bit here.
